AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023 Logo Revealed
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) and the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) of the upcoming AFC Asian Cup Qatar 2023 launched the Official Logo of the competition.
The logo was revealed to audiences at the Final Draw at the Katara Opera House in Doha, Qatar on May 11.
The newly launched logo combines the silhouette of the famous AFC Asian Cup trophy with unique cultural elements that embody the competition’s spirit.
The lines of the trophy draw inspiration from the feathers of the majestic falcon, a bird with historical significance to the nation of Qatar, and the petals of Asia’s indigenous lotus flower.
The two native symbols are united by one trait: their ability to rise above, as the lotus flower floats above water and the falcon soars in the sky.
The top of the logo is adorned with the iconic maroon, or ennabi, Qatar’s national color. The typography is inspired by Arabic calligraphy, paying homage to the nation’s language and its beautiful calligraphy. Finally, the logo is tailed with a shape resembling a diamond, which is the Arabic “nuqta” or dot that can be seen across many Arabic letters and is considered to be a symbol of clarity in Arabic writing.
